(ST. JOSEPH, Mo.) Some of Santa's little helpers rolled up their sleeves Thursday afternoon.

Skaith Elementary School students spent part of their afternoon wrapping presents for InterServ's Adopt-A-Senior program.

The students, who are part of the school's Student Council, adopted two seniors in need this year.

The kids say they just wanted to make sure no one is forgotten on Christmas morning.

"We were thinking of the people who don't have many presents for Christmas, so, we want to make them happy and give them presents," said Bryanna, 9.

This is the tenth year students at Skaith Elementary have been a part of the program.
